But honestly, 5-CURRENT is dogging right now on a DS-20. Running it on a Multia or NoName is just not really reasonable. Most the Multias out there have Heat Death Syndrome and don't get any real use. If I knew of someone besides just you that had a VX42 I would consider the Multia a more capable machine. I equate Multia/NoName with the i386(Pentium P5), which some want to de-support in 5.0. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
